No

The device description clearly identifies the device as a "dental resin cement," which is a physical material, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as a dental cement used for permanently bonding various dental restorations and posts to tooth structure. This is a direct application within the body (or on a part of the body, the tooth).
  • Device Description: The description reiterates its function as a dental resin cement for bonding to tooth structure.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVDs are used outside the body to analyze samples for diagnostic purposes. This device is used within the mouth to physically bond materials to teeth.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

PULPDENT POST CEMENT is substantially equivalent in design, composition, performance, intended use, safety and effectiveness to the predicate products listed above. The predicate products have been found substantially equivalent under the 510(k) premarket notification process as Class II Dental Devices under CFR 872.3275. According to the NIH Technology Assessment Conference on Effects and Side-Effects of Dental Restorative Materials: "General usage of these materials over about 20 years indicates a high benefit-torisk ratio... both composites and glass ionomers are relatively trouble-free. There is no evidence of shortterm or long-term risk...There is no suspicion of any problems after virtually billions of procedures in the United States.

Dear Mr. Berk:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Page 2 - Mr. Kenneth J. Berk

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 21 CFR Part 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
